Unless you specifically want to tinker with the system you probably want to stick with SteamOS.
Programmer and computational neuroscientist, now HPC support engineer in Okinawa, Japan.
Photography, bouldering, recreational programming and playing the sanshin are things I do.
Sweden, Osaka and Okinawa are places I particularly care about.

Ah sorry, misunderstood.

I see the screenshot from the Mastodon mobile web client.
Edit: of course I do. It’s the other way around that doesn’t seem to work.

Ubuntu is an excellent introduction to Linux I think. Also used a lot by experienced users that no longer want to spend much time keeping their desktop running.

SteamOS is a spin off Arch aimed very specifically at the steam deck and nothing else. The desktop is nice but incomplete; try setting up a fully working japanese input method for example; or a full, modern gcc compiler chain.
In some future they may make a distro release aimed at a wider range of hardware. But until then it’s not a general purpose desktop OS and it’s doing them a disservice trying to pretend it is.
